MILWAUKEE — Irgens, a Milwaukee-based developer and operator, will develop the BMO Harris Financial Center, a 25-story, 379,400-square-foot office tower in Milwaukee. The project is valued at roughly $175 million and includes the development of 12,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The company recently acquired a seven-story parking deck located on Wells Street between North Water Street and North Broadway that will be demolished to provide space for the new office property. Both the building and a 647-space parking ramp are scheduled for a December 2019 completion.
Chicago-based BMO Harris Bank will occupy seven floors for a total footprint of 124,000 square feet in the office tower, which will serve as its Wisconsin headquarters. A pair of Wisconsin-based firms, J.H. Findorff & Son Inc. and Kahler Slater, will serve as general contractors and architects, respectively, on the project.
